Today we’d like to introduce you to Christopher & Kristie Jenkins
Hi Christopher & Kristie , it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
We honestly started very small with just 2 inflatable bounce houses a few concession machines(popcorn,cotton candy & snow cone) 10 tables and 60 chairs that we purchased with our savings right before the Covid pandemic with the idea of having a small party rental company but God had other plans eventually that small idea grew into a Full event planning company with a venue prayer, hard work & a extreme amount of dedication through our ups and downs during the process of expanding played a huge role in how we were able to get to where we are now an will play a big role on where we intend to go with our business
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It has not been easy at all
From learning what things are required by our county to open a Event venue through the process of finding the right location which was tough we actually had to go through 2 venues to find the perfect one that fits the needs of the clients as well as our city & state requirements but we definitely appreciate the struggles because if nothing else they provided us with knowledge to be able to help other entrepreneurs that may have questions about starting a business we enjoy sharing what we have learned through this process and the things that we are still learning if it helps others get closer to there dreams because that was not a luxury that was available to us
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
We pride ourselves on offering our clients the convenience of being able to secure a venue, decor services & catering at the same location.This makes the process very smooth for our clients. We are most known for being the Husband & Wife duo.We try our very best to make sure that the process of planning a event is as stress free as possible to all of clients
What matters most to you?
The One Thing that Matters the most to us is Family.We are parents of 5 amazing children,We Want to insure they understand what it takes to be successful in life and that things may not always be easy but if you truly believe in your dreams what ever they may be to never give up we hope that leading by example one day helps them to reach there goals one day using the tools that we have taught them
